[khg] the taste of tension

[empallin]

forgive me if you will
for dripping blood on your floor
please accept my apologies
for just walking through your door
the cops will be here soon
so i wont have time to stay
since i have your attention
i have a few things to say

anger and fear and
blood and tension
fill my head and mouth
so i must think and speak
quick and clear
and fire with heart

the problem is where to start
with all the problems i left to you
all those stories you heard
what they tell you is all true
i stripped the qilt from your clouds
made sure nothing turned out right
poked and proded at your wounds
adding fresh one each night

anger and fear and
blood and tension
fill my head and mouth
so i must think and speak
quick and clear
and fire with heart

i could tell you i love you
and how sorry i am for that
that would be one more lie
but i must lay it where its at
its true those things you suspect
things you never wanted to see
now if you would please understand
i must take you with me
